Co-Operative Living.
Prom "The Woman's Invasion," In Every
body's.
Each passing decade sees a larger and
larger share of the life of the child trans
ferred from Individual to co-operative
influences; in other words, transferred
from within the home to outside the
home. We have already observed that
the same law of development exiats in
respect to certain other elements of
home life. There has arisen a great
demand on the part of housewives for
food already cooked.
In one of the Chicago department
stores last year, the manager of the
grocery department sold more than
$200,000 of chicken croquets, salami
sausage, cervelat sausage, Southern
hash, mutton stew, veal chops, fried
perch, fried frogs' legs, combination
salad, boiled ham, beef tongue, fried
oysters, baked white fish, bologna sau
sage, deviled crabs, and so on, all ready
to eat.
Of course, even $200,000 is a small
amount compared with what a city as
large as Chicago spends a year in food,
but it shows in which direction the ten
dency is setting. There is probably
10 times as much cooked food sold In
Chicago today as there was 10 years
ago.
All these changes tend to contract the
scope of the home, but It does not fol
low that they tend to destroy its vital
principle.
The End of Self Government.

individuals and ending there again, to
rule themselves.

How to Know Good Meat.
Prom the Baltimore American.
Meat should be red, with the fat a
clear white.
Pale pink denotes a diseased condi
tion.
A purplish hue proves that the ani
mal died a natural death.
The fat, besides being white, should
be firm and suety, and never moist.
Good meat has very little smell.
Bad meat usually gives forth a sort
of medicinal odor.
Bad meat shrinks considerably in
boiling.
Meat which is fresh and good does
not lose an ounce of weight, but swells
rather, when being boiled.

A Cop* for Hog Cholera
Hog Cholera or Swine Plague as It
Is sometimes called Is a highly conta
gious disorder.
When a hog shows any symptoms of
this disease, he should be isolated at
once and the pen fumigated in order
to save the other hogs if possible.
Mix one part Sloan’s Liniment with
two parts milk in a bottle and give
every sick hog a tablespoonful of this
mixture night and morning for three
days. Sloan’s Liniment Is a powerful
antiseptic, kills the disease germs,
soothes all Inflammation and acts as a
tonic to the animal.
A. J. McCarthy, of Idavllle, Ind.,
says: “My hogs had hog cholera three
days before we got Sloan’s Liniment,
which was recommended to me by a
neighbor who was using it with suc
cess. I have used It now for three
days and my hogs are almost well. One
hog died before I got the Liniment,
but I have not lost any since.”
Mr. Q. W. Balsbaugh, of Peru, Ind.,
writes: "1 had four pigs that were
coughing and were not doing well. I
gave them some of Sloan’s Liniment
and they got better at once."

A Hogarthian Inn Sign.
From the Strand Magazine.
One of the most humorous inn signs
is 'The Man Loaded With Mischief,”
which is found about a mile from
Cambridge, on the Madingley road. The
original “Mischief” was designed by
Hogarth for a public house In Oxford
street.
It is needless to say that the sign
board. and even the name, have long
ago disappeared from the busy London
thoroughfare, but the quaint device
must have been extensively copied by
country sign painters. There Is a "Mis
chief" at Wallingford and a “Load of
Mischief" at Norwich. The inn on the
Madingley road exhibits the sign In its
original form. Though the colors are
much faded from exposure to the
weather, traces of Hogarthian humor
can be detected. A man Is staggering
under the weight of a woman, who la
on his back. She is holding a glass
of gin In her hand; a chain and pad
lock are around the man's neck, labelled
"Wedlock.” Or the right hand side le
the shop of "S. Gripe. Pawnbroker,’
and a carpenter Is juBt going in tc
pledge his tools.
Origin of the Anvil.
From the Boston Globe.
The anvil was known In the earliest
times, being spoken of in the Bible, the
prophet Isaiah saying (chapter 47
verse 7), “So the carpenter encouraged
the goldsmith, and he that smoothetl
with the hammer, him that smiteth
the anvil.” It is not known who first
used it, but of course the anvil of an
tiquity was unlike that of today as
perfected by modern workmanship
The anvil still used in the Orient, how
ever, is a boot shaped piece of meta
inserted in a section of oak or walnut
log; larger or smaller it is used bj
tinsmiths, shoemakers, silversmith!
and blacksmiths. The anvils used ir
this country are commonly made ol
cast iron faced with steel and are ol
parallelopiped form with a steel com
or beak at one end and a "handy hole’
for inserting a chisel or other tools ai
the other end.
Wears Trousers and Does Man’s Work

daughter of August Bugelnorth, !

that she was not being forced to wea

of earning a man's pay. Consequentl;
her father was released and Annie con
tinues to wear men’s clothing.
There is a statute in this state pro

Look Out, Mr. Baseball Fan!
From the Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin
It looks as if the opening of the base
ball season were a serious matter ir
Norfolk, Ya. Postmaster Carney ol
that ‘ity has set up in a conspicuous
place in his office the following no
tice:
"All requests for leave of absence
on account of toothache, severe colds
and minor physical ailments, and or
accoun. of funerals, picnics, church
sociables and the like, must be hand
ed to the superintendent of your di
vision before 10 o'clock on the morn
ing of tne game."
There is no evidence in this that
Postmaster Carney is a cynic. He may
be only a humorist; at the worst, he
is probably nothing more reprehensible
than a disciplinarian, and from all ap
pearances not a very rigid one. A
Cato in his place would set down his
feed against leave of absence on base
ball days. He does nothing of the
kind; but it is noticeable that the rule
which he promulgates gives him a
chance to instigate inquiry, and if the
employes of his postofflee who love
baseball more than duty are not eir
cuimpc-ct they find themselves com
pelled to make humiliating personal ex
planations and may miss leaves of ab
sence which they had expected to en
joy.
Smallest French Conscript.
Correspondence of the London Telegraph.
There are, as everybody knows who
has seen a French line regiment, some
extremely small soldiers in the French
army. Beyond doubt, however, the
most diminutive conscript who ever
drew an unlucky number from the urn
is Julien Touchard, a young man born
at Manves, in the department of Orne,
on July 19. 1SS8. This conscript, who
is In his 21st year, has only attained
a height of 3 feet 2 Inches, and weighs
exactly 40 pounds. On April 1, when,
along with his fellow consc ripts, he ap
pears before the council of revision for
his district. Julien will appear clad in
the short stockings and belted overalls
of an Infant, of which he presents the
physical aspect. Though the military
authorities are to enroll every available
man, it Is hardly likely that Julien
Touchard will be required to shoulder
a rifle. The youngest of a family of
live children, Julien developed normal
ly until he was vaccinated, at the age
of 7, after which his growth entirely
ceased.

How Oregon Got Its Name.
From the Portland Oregonian.
We believe it most probable that the
! name of Oregon arose out of some cir
cumstance connected with Western ex
j plorations under direction of the
! French. Earlier than the English, the
French had pressed on westward from
j the great lakes to the Red river, to the
Saskatchewan and to the foot of the
, j Rocky mountains. They were ranging
i ; the country of the upper Mississippi in
search of furs and for trade with the
i i natives; they were full of curiosity and
I active in inquiry about the grreat dis
. tant west and the unknown westward
sea. Of this sea they possessed Spanish
! charts and probably used among the
■ natives the word "Aragon” as a
: synonym of Spain. When Jonathan
Carver, of Connecticut, was on his ex
■ pedition to the upper Mississippi coun
' try. in 1767-1768. ne made all possible
| inquiries, he tells us, about the eoun
I try toward the west, the western river
and the sea and the word "Oregon,"
! and the name was written for the first
i time, so far as A-e know', or possibly
l j can ever know, in Carver's book pub
lished in Condon in 1778. It is a book of
little importance or value, except for
I tiie fact that it gives the world the
i name of Oregon, which Carver says he
! got from natives in the country of the
upper Mississippi.
Why He Was Honored.

thus so strangely honored nor the other
